Made in America: Baby.

A few weeks ago, when my husband and I were discussing buying things for our baby, we made a commitment to buy as many items as possible that have been made right here in America. Not an easy task! But totally doable. There is a new trend in this country of buying American and I love it! Get this. The average American spends $700 on Christmas gifts during the holidays. If just $64 of that $700 was spent on American-made products we could create 200,000 jobs. Imagine if we did this throughout the year and not just at Christmas. We could start a revolution! Let's do it.Buy American. Just look around! You'll be surprised at what is made here.

All of these products on this board are made in America. Yes. I know. They might be a tad bit more expensive than the stuff made in China but you can feel good about keeping money and jobs in this country.
